6. Hardware Design Guidelines of DSOM-110R Rockchip RK3568 SOM

6.1 SDMMC0/1/2

The RK3568 integrates three SDMMC controllers, all of which support the SD V3.01 and MMC V4.51 protocols. Of these, SDMMC0 and SDMMC1 can support up to 200MHz, while SDMMC2 can only support up to 150MHz.

6.1.1 SDMMC0 interface:
  • The SDMMC0 interface is multiplexed in the VCCIO3 power domain.
  • It supports system boot and is assigned to the SD card function by default.
  • SDMMC0 is multiplexed with JTAG and other functions. Function selection is controlled by SDMMC0_DET status by default. See section 2.1.5 for more details.
  • VCCIO3 is the power supply and requires an external 3.3V or 1.8V power supply. If an SD card is connected:If only SD2.0 mode is supported, a 3.3V power supply can be provided directly.If SD3.0 mode is supported in addition to SD2.0 mode, the default power supply is 3.3V. After negotiating with the SD card to run in SD3.0 mode, the power supply needs to be switched to 1.8V. This can be achieved using the RK809-5’s LDO5, which supplies power to VCCIO3 separately. If an SDIO device is connected, 1.8V or 3.3V must be supplied, depending on the peripheral and the actual operating mode.
04b0b5f82918f770b6edf6674d120ff
  • When making board-to-board connections via connectors, it is recommended to add a certain value of the resistor in series (between 22and 100 ohms, subject to SI testing) and to reserve TVS devices.
  • If an SD card is used, the following points must be observed:
  • The VDD pin of the SD card should be supplied with 3.3V and the
    decoupling capacitors should not be removed. They should be placed
    close to the card slot.
  • The signals SDMMC0_D[3:0], SDMMC0_CMD, and SDMMC0_CLK must
    be connected in series with a 22 Ohm resistor, and the signal
    SDMMC0_DET must be connected in series with a 100 Ohm resistor.
  • ESD devices must be placed at the SD card location for the
    SDMMC0_D[3:0], SDMMC0_CMD, SDMMC0_CLK, and SDMMC0_DET
    signals. If SD3.0 mode is to be supported, the structure capacitance of
    the ESD device must be less than 1pF. If only SD2.0 mode needs to be
    supported, the ESD device structure capacitance can be relaxed to 9pF.

6.1.2 SDMMC0 interface:
  • The SDMMC1 interface is multiplexed in the VCCIO4 power domain.
  • It does not support System Boot and is assigned by default to the SDIO WIFI function.
  • VCCIO4 power supply can be 1.8V or 3.3V depending on the peripheral and the actual operating mode. It is important to ensure consistency with the IO of the peripheral. When using SD card function, attention should be paid to the power domain voltage, as with SDMMC0.
110R SDMMCO

The recommended pull-up/down and matching design for the SDMMC1 interface are as follows:

SignalInternal pull up/downConnection methodDescription
SDMMC1_D[3:0]Pull-upWhen the wiring is short, a 22ohm resistor in series can be removed, and the corresponding IO internal pull-up resistor can be used insteadSD data transmission/reception
SDMMC1_CLKPull-downSeries with 22ohm resistorSD clock transmission
SDMMC1_CMDPull-downWhen the wiring is short, a 22ohm resistor in series can be removed, and the corresponding IO internal pull-up resistor can be used insteadSD command transmission/reception
  • When connecting to a SDIO WIFI module, low power standby solutions must be considered, including moving the relevant control pins to the PMUIO1/2 power domain. When VDD_LOGIC is off, the IO states in the VCCIO1/2/3/4/5/6/7 power domain cannot be maintained.
  • When implementing board-to-board connections via connectors, it is recommended to add a certain value of resistor in series (between 22 Ohm and 100 Ohm, depending on the SI test requirements) and to reserve TVS devices.
6.1.3 SDMMC2 interface:
  • The SDMMC2 interface has two positions that can be multiplexed, one in the VCCIO5 power domain and the other in the VCCIO6 power domain. Only one can be used, either all in the VCCIO5 power domain or all in the VCCIO6 power domain. It is not supported to use VCCIO5 for some and VCCIO6 for others.
  • System boot is not supported.
  • The supply voltage of VCCIO5 or VCCIO6 can be set to 1.8V or 3.3V depending on the external device and the actual operating mode. It is necessary to ensure consistency with the IO of the external device. When using the SD card function, the power supply voltage should be considered and the requirements are the same as for SDMMC0.

8. The methods of Coreboard Thermal Control

8.1 Thermal Control Strategy
There is a generic thermal system driver framework in the Linux kernel that defines a number of temperature control strategies. The following three strategies are currently in common use:
  • Power_allocator: Introduces proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control, dynamically allocates power to each module based on the current temperature, and converts power to frequency to achieve frequency limiting based on temperature.
  • Step_wise: Limits the frequency in steps based on the current temperature.
  • User space: Does not limit frequency.
    The RK3568 chip has a T-sensor that detects the chip’s internal temperature and uses the Power_allocator strategy by default. The operating states are as follows:
  • If the temperature exceeds the set temperature value:
  • If the temperature trend is rising, the frequency is gradually reduced.
  • If the temperature trend is falling, the frequency is gradually increased.
  • When the temperature falls to the set temperature value:
  • If the temperature trend is increasing, the frequency remains unchanged.
  • If the temperature trend is falling, the frequency is gradually increased.
  • If the frequency reaches its maximum and the temperature is still below the set value, the CPU frequency is no longer under thermal control and the CPU frequency becomes system load frequency modulation.
  • If the chip is still overheating after the frequency has been reduced (e.g. due to poor heat dissipation) and the temperature exceeds 95 degrees, the software will trigger a restart. If the restart fails due to deadlock or other reasons and the chip exceeds 105 degrees, the otp_out inside the chip will trigger a direct shutdown by the PMIC.

Note: The temperature trend is determined by comparing the previous and current temperatures. If the device temperature is below the threshold, the temperature is sampled every l seconds; if the device temperature exceeds the threshold, the temperature is sampled every 20ms, and the frequency is limited.

The RK3568 SDK provides separate thermal control strategies for the CPU and GPU. Please refer to the (Rockchip_Developer_Guide_Thermal) document for specific configurations.

9. Production Guide of DSOM-110R Rockchip RK3568 SOM

9.1 SMT process

Select modules that can be SMT or in-line packaged according to the customer’s PCB design scheme. If the board is designed for SMT packaging, use SMT-packaged modules. If the board is designed for in-line assembly, use in-line assembly. Modules must be soldered within 24 hours of unpacking. If not, place them in a dry cabinet with a relative humidity of no more than 10% or re-pack them in a vacuum and record the exposure time (total exposure time must not exceed 168 hours).

Instruments or equipment required for SMT assembly:

  • SMT Mounter
  • SPI
  • Reflow soldering
  • Oven temperature tester
  • AOI

Instruments or equipment required for baking:

  • Cabinet ovens
  • Antistatic high-temperature trays
  • Antistatic and high-temperature gloves

9.2 Module storage conditions:

Moisture-proof bags must be stored at a temperature <40°C and humidity <90% RH. Dry-packed products have a shelf life of 12 months from the date of sealing of the package. Sealed packaging with humidity indicator card.

f04df59f980d2f6a004b01fe784124a

9.3 Baking is required when:

The vacuum bag is found to be broken before unpacking.

After unpacking, the bag is found to be without a humidity indicator card.

The humidity indicator card reads 10% or more after unpacking, and the color ring turns pink.

Total exposure time after unpacking exceeds 168 hours.

More than 12 months from the date of the first sealed packaging.

Baking parameters are as follows:

Baking temperature: 60°C for reel packs, humidity less than or equal to 5% RH; 125°C for tray packs, humidity less than or equal to 5% RH (high-temperature-resistant trays, not blister packs for tow trays).

Baking time: 48 hours for reel packaging; 12 hours for pallet packaging.

Alarm temperature setting: 65°C for reel packs; 135°C for pallet packs.

After cooling to below 36°C under natural conditions, production can be carried out.

If the exposure time after baking is greater than 168 hours and not used up, bake again.

If the exposure time is more than 168 hours without baking, it is not recommended to use the reflow soldering process to solder this batch of modules. The modules are class 3 moisture-sensitive devices and may become damp when the exposure time is exceeded. This may lead to device failure or poor soldering when high-temperature soldering is carried out.

9.4 ESD

Please protect the module from electrostatic discharge (ESD) during the entire production process.

9.5 Conformity

To ensure product qualification rates, it is recommended to use SPI and AOI test equipment to monitor solder paste printing and placement quality.

9.6 Recommended Furnace Temperature Profile

Please follow the reflow profile for SMT placement with a peak temperature of 245°C. The reflow temperature profile is shown below using the SAC305 alloy solder paste as an example.
